Rupert Lowe? Rupert No.

This guy though. Fully expecting him to announce a policy of custodial sentences for people who put the milk in first, and fines for damp spoons in the sugarbowl (both policies I could wholeheartedly get behind, I should add).

Andy Windsor

"A rude, arrogant and entitled man who could not distinguish between the public interest, which he said he served, and his own private interest". But apart from that, he's sound, yea? I'm picking up some animosity from Trade Minister Chris Bryant, who called for Andy to be sacked as trade envoy multiple times in 2011, in part because of his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. He'll need some lint free gauze for THAT burn. Any deference to the Andrew formerly known as Prince is a thing of the past; his punishment so far (apart from the arrest) is for his name to become gradually less posh.  He'll be Andy Windsor by the time he gets in front of the beak.  

While they're "Uniting The Kingdom", Untie The Flags.

Just thinking; on May 16th, when the "patriots" are at the Unite The Kingdom Rally in London, wouldn't it be a jolly jape to remove  all the flags, while they're not looking. The beauty of this is: anyone who objects can't be a true patriot; if they were they'd be in London. Sort of like the witches ducking stool concept of yore, or a modern reboot of S chrodinger's Cat; Schrodinger's Racist, if you will. Just a thought, like. 

Will yourself be watching The Apprentice?

New The Apprentice drinking game: Take a drink every time someone: Incorrectly uses a reflexive pronoun: "That was myself, Lord Sugar" Says: "Price point". Says: "Thrown under the bus". Every time Lord Sugar is called away on "Urgent Business". Every time someone "Smashes it out (of) the park" 

The latest in the Operation Raise The Colours soap opera.

Tommy Two-names acolyte Daniel Thomas (Danny Tommo) has publicly commented on the end of his bromance with the activist, sex doll rental pioneer, and co-founder of the OTRC "unity"  group Ryan Bridge, following a travel ban issued by the French Interior Ministry. Tommo, who described Bridge's post-break up comments as "sinister" announced the next stage of his campaign to save Britain: invading Dover on January 24th with his hastily assembled crew of football enthusiasts. Their Operation Overlord 2 c̶a̶s̶h̶ ̶c̶o̶w̶ campaign saw the dastardly duo taking selfies, dressed in matching Barbour (cute!) with damaged dinghies on French beaches, using some of the £100k (before tax) provided by supporters. The travel ban adds another country in which Bridge won't be able to holibob this year: The Spanish authorities have a few questions to ask regarding his involvement in a multi -million pound holiday insurance scheme. I can't help but think: if one...

They had a Fuzzbox. They used it.

The callow youth reading an article in Smash Hits about a Birmingham band called Fuzzbox would never have believed that I would know Tina socially all these years later.  Mad love for these pioneering, proto-Riot Grrrl Indie popstrels. 

A battle of wills with nature.

Day 5 of the bird feeding programme: The Cath Kidston bird feeder lies broken, like an Erdington pub's toilet door. The fat balls have been claimed by the squirrels. The Magpies run amok, claiming the territory as their own, subjugating the wood pigeons.  An opportunistic Robin swoops down regularly, leaving chaos in its wake. I'm locked in a battle of wills with nature.  There can be only one victor.
